    I was given these silver bars, I am a designer and love the image decorations which i have used for screen printed fabrics.
    I would like to know the origin of these.
    Thanks Mark

      Google says the back is Chinese and says "pure silver". More research needed to verify that. Interesting motif..

      you have to test it , that,s the only way , a small bottle of CARATEST ( about 10dollar) and an small rough side of nail file in the existing scratches or ruptures
      near the ZU YIN ( that,s the mark)

      actually most of them are complete fake or coated , and it is more to fake an ZU YIN then an WEN YIN because that,s is more modern

      actually if i would want to fool people , i could order a stamp foor a few dollars and i got so called real genuine ( is fake) silver or an sterling 925, no sweat at all

      IMO this is more likely to be Hongkong or Shanghai silver also the artistic site is let,s say a bit common and troublesome

      do the test , what do you got to lose , i am not an believer yet , but still cute

      Hi Apostst.
      Thank for your info.
      I took them to a silver dealer and after tested the they turn out to be silver, not silver plate.
